Ratings: American Idol down 3% from last Wednesday, up 3% from last season

And the ratings go up! And the ratings come down! (And you just go with the flow. Until your feet are back on the ground.)

American Idol Season 10 is a winner. Congratulations everybody!

From TVbytheNumbers:

American Idol’s 7.7 adults 18-49 rating was down 3% vs. last Wednesday, but it still easily pushed Fox to the top of the ratings heap for the night. Idol doubters, or Simon Cowell fans, may want to note that was 3% above the comparable telecast last season, 7.5 rating on 3/10/10
